Question

If two organisms are in the same phylum, which other classification category must they also share?

Answer 1

The correct answer is kingdom.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hierarchy system used for the classification of the organism is termed as the taxonomic ranking. in this ranking, domains are divided in kingdoms, kingdoms are divided in phylum. The phyla are divided in class. The class is divided in orders. The order is divided in families. The families are divided in genus and the genus is divided in species.

The phylum is categorized as lower to the kingdom and higher to the class. So, organism belonging to same phylum must have the same kingdom.

Answer 2

Phylum is a principal taxonomic category that is ranked below the kingdom and above the class. If two organisms are in the same phylum, this means that they are also in the same kingdom. Each phylum is composed of one or more classes.
